SO come on who is this player for £40mil .
You seem keen for posters to throw a few names into the hat so I guess I'll throw in a couple I personally like who look like they could be got, and would be useful in our squad. I don't watch a lot of European football so my knowledge is primarily with the EPL. Once again thoug, just because fans cannot categorically name the players we should sign it doesn't mean they are not out there.
I think you could get Aubameyang for that price, he's 30 now so no real sell on value (so doesn't fit the traditional FSG ergonomics) but he has been successful playing for Klopp, he can play anywhere across the front three but more specifically as a 9 or inside left (for Mane). He's quick, skilful and versatile. Arsenal need some cash by the looks of it, particularly if they want the readies to buy Zaha and Tierney. I thought we should have got the lad 18 months ago when Arsenal bought him tbh and I'm guessing it is highly unlikely to happen given that Klopp didn't go in for him before.
Phillipe Anderson is another player who would fit the bill, he'd probably cost nearly double what West Ham paid for him mind but he is another who would fit the bill imho. Probably less suited to the 9 shirt (but he could play the false 9 role) but he would push Mane and Salah for playing time in my humble opinion and you could also play him as a 10. He's a terrific player who would fit in perfectly. This time last year he was a highly thought of player, not an out an out superstar, obviously he is now premium having proven himself in the EPL for a season.
